    This morning I lucked out and was able to buy two boxes of ammo. I placed the boxes on the front seat and headed back home. Stopped at a gas station where a drop-dead gorgeous blonde in a short skirt was filling up her car at the next pump. She glanced at the two boxes of ammo, bent over and leaned in my passenger window, and said in a sexy voice "I'm a big believer in barter, old fella. Would you be interested in trading S.E.X. for ammo?" I thought for a few seconds and asked, "What kind of ammo 'ya got?"

                  no but the solders will, at the first sign of trouble, drop their guns and run, leaving you with loads of ammo the problem with french zombies is telling them from a normal frenchman

                    Brains is actually so fatty in them selves it would be a shame for both the truffle oil and the Fois Gras. But most recipes I've seen for brainz (cervelle de veau) has lemon in it, and usually parsley.

                              On that topic, is there still a shortage of ammo in the US?

                              According to some of my friends who shoot it's gradually going back to normal. OTOH it's started to go back to normal a few times before too and the year's young; Obama's still got plenty of time to say something that makes people panic and go back into hoarding mode triggering a new shortage and continuing his streak of winning salesman of the year at every major gun store for a 7th year running.

                              Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason? Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful? --Zachris Topelius Training a telescope on one’s own belly button will only reveal lint. You like that? You go right on staring at it. I prefer looking at galaxies. -- Sarah Hoyt
